Following Charlie Kirk's death, many took to social media to condone or even celebrate his death. In response, conservative groups organized to dox and push for people to get fired for celebrating Kirk's death. Now I see reports all over the place of all types of people who are getting fired or expelled from schools. That includes teachers, doctors, students, and even news anchors.
Generally, I tend to be against cancel culture, but I'm on the fence on this one. I would rather these people be suspended and be talked to than to just be fired since the latter doesn't really fix anything. I've also found some cases where just a negative comment about Kirk was being lumped in as being celebrating or condoning his death and I think that goes too far. That would effectively silence any criticism of Kirk.
